Melt Cosmetics Honey Thief Cream Blushlight Review & Swatches

Honey Thief

Melt Cosmetics Honey Thief Cream BlushlightMelt Cosmetics Honey Thief Cream Blushlight ($22.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a medium, pink-coral with moderate, warm undertones and a natural sheen. It was richly pigmented, so I’d recommend using a lighter hand or a more feathery brush to pick up product if sheer to medium coverage was desired.

The consistency was lightweight, creamy, and smooth to the touch with moderate slip. It dried down to a more transfer-resistant finish that wasn’t glossy but more skin-like, and I felt like I had a good amount of time to work. The edges remained somewhat blendable with moderate pressure, so it wasn’t unforgiving to work with. The color applied evenly to bare skin and blended out with little effort. It worked nicely over bare skin as well as over foundation as it did not lift base products up. It stayed on well for eight and a half hours before fading visibly.

Formula Overview

$22.00/0.14 oz. - $157.14 Per Ounce

The product is primarily marketed as a cream blush, but the brand also stated that they can be applied to lips as well with some shades working as cream eyeshadow for a monochromatic look. There was nothing about coverage that I could find, though the brand's swatches--both live and in promotional images--were opaque.

The formula was lightweight, moderately emollient, and slightly gel-like, which helped it spread better over bare skin and over base products. Most shades were not prone to lifting up base products and worked well with both fingertips and brushes for application.

As the formula was more pigmented with most shades ranging from semi-opaque to fully opaque, I found brushes were particularly good at getting a sheerer, more diffused application, especially around the edges. If you want a sheerer effect, I'd recommend using less product and building up more as they were more pigmented than most cream-based blushes.

They dried down to a more transfer-resistant finish, so they did not remain emollient, which helped them last longer on my skin. They could still be blended out once dry, and if I rubbed with a fingertip, product would transfer, but the color didn't lift away if I had to brush a stray eyelash or hair from my face (as examples). They still had a natural sheen on my skin, less than dewy but definitely not matte either!

On average, they lasted eight hours on me with a couple of shades lasting a touch longer. I found the shimmer-less shades to last slightly longer in comparison to the shimmery shades, which were more emollient in the pan as well.
